Five people in Iowa are being monitored for the coronavirus, according to the Iowa Department of Public Health.
A chart on their website is being updated with the number of people in the state being monitored. On Monday, March 2, the chart showed that five people were considered "asymptomatic," which means they were not showing any symptoms.
That number had fluctuated over the course of a week, going from seven Iowans, to 12, to 13 and down to five being monitored with no symptoms.
Overall, 39 Iowans had completed public health monitoring.

The IDPH says "the overall risk to Iowans is low right now."
Monitoring began back on February 3, as part of a recommendation from the President's Task Force on Coronavirus.
The IDPH indicated that the Center for Disease Control and Prevention was monitoring an outbreak first identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China.
The IDPH chart will be updated on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
